FV Flowplayer Docs - Incompatible Plugins

We do our best to avoid any compatibility issues and fix any which come up, but FV Flowplayer is a very powerful piece of software and there are a few plugins which do not play well with others. Here's an up to date list (including when compatibility issues were resolved).

Fixed

All In One WP Security (this plugin restricts a lot of files using .htaccess, just remove the "RedirectMatch 403 @" rule, otherwise retina player graphic won't work)

Pending

Hide My WP (one of our user complained about some playlist issues - the item URLs were somehow changed by this plugin, but exact nature of this bug remains unknown as it's a paid plugin and we haven't heard back from the user)

RokSprocket (conflict between the included MooTools library and Flowplayer, which causes the page content to load into the player container and totally breaks the playback). There is a fix:

Solved by performing a custom build of the Mootools lib, removing the package "Request.HTML": Mootools adds some methods to the Element prototype (sic), especially a "load" method. This methods conflicts with Flowplayer when it fires a load event using jQuery.

WP Lightbox Ultimate (load the Flowplayer library which can be disabled, but that still doesn't fix the issue)

General Plugin Recommendations

While you looking for incompatible plugins, we recommend taking a look at WPEngine'splugin blacklist as anything on their list is probably very bad for performance/hosting.

In terms of caching plugins, we strongly recommend Hyper Cache as its performance is best of breed (ahead or within 3% of leader depending on your site) without all the maintenance headaches the other caching plugins bring on. For WPEngine you don't need to run a caching plugin of your own as they've set it up themselves.
